Conrad Murray Secret Video, Victim of Michael Jackson? (CLIP)
A new video surfaced this week showing Conrad Murray, the doctor involved in the death of Michael Jackson, delivering a somewhat "Christian" message, urging people not to judge the legendary artist.
"Before passing judgment or condemning someone, take a good look at yourself, and if you are not 100 percent sure that when scrutinized, no fault can be found than you may have earned that right to criticize," said Murray in the video.
He then goes on to say that he "prays" people will celebrate the good the Jackson did during his life rather than focusing on all of the negatives.
"Let us not perish in the flood of negative reporting, maybe some good news will be more rejuvenating than you think," adds Murray.
Murray claims he was a close friend of Jackson's, and was unaware of his addiction to prescription drugs. The manslaughter trial that saw to the doctor's conviction showed that Murray was aware of Jacksons's problem and even attempted to use drugs in order to wean him off propofol.
According to TMZ, Murray filmed the video just three days after Jackson's death in 2009. His lawyers never released the video and kept it under wraps since they felt it would hurt his defense.
Murray was convicted of manslaughter in November of 2011 after eight hours of deliberation. He was sentenced to four years in prison.
Today marks the third anniversary of Jackson's death.
The singer is said to have died from an overdose of propofol, an intravenously administered drug that normally is used for general anesthesia.
By Murray making these drugs available to the singer, he was found to play a key role in his death and this ultimately lead to his conviction.
